K is to Kiss
My theme for this yearβs Blogging from A to Z April Challenge is Marriage from A to Z in 55 Words. K is to Kiss in Marriage!
“I think you are ignoring me.
You don’t care anymore.
I had a bad day at work.
I missed out on the workout today.
Somebody spilled his coffee on my jacket in the train.”
He thought kissing her, to shut her up would be a good idea!
He was wrong!
It was a great idea!
A Word to the Wise
The mouth is made for communication, and nothing is more articulate than a kiss. β Jarod Kintz

Kissing is always a great idea but depending on whom you are kissing π Naughty post today, loved it.
April 13, 2014 6:57 pm|
LOL π I liked your disclaimer, Sulekha π
Thanks, glad you liked it π

The quotes at the end make your posts more beautiful π

Thanks Sushree π
April 12, 2014 1:41 am|
Ah yes, the one special moment when we become oblivious to the world around us π
April 13, 2014 6:58 pm|
True that!! π
April 12, 2014 2:11 am|
So true π
Kissing is the best way to seal a deal either a good one or a bad one !
April 13, 2014 6:58 pm|
Bad one too, eh!! π
April 12, 2014 4:42 am|
Hubby’s having a lie down so I better wait until he wakes up for the kissing bit. :p

My K isn’t up yet but it’s also about kissing, except I went a different road with it. π
“He was wrong! It was a great idea!” I loved that! π
April 13, 2014 7:01 pm|
Will check out your Kiss post soon! Thanks Chrys, glad you liked it π
April 12, 2014 4:54 am|
It was an awesome idea.
April 13, 2014 7:02 pm|
You bet π
April 12, 2014 7:38 am|
Lol! Great post! Only if kissing would solve everything!
April 13, 2014 7:03 pm|
Oh yes, it doesn’t solve everything, but temporarily I guess, quite a few! π
April 12, 2014 8:08 am|
Great idea, indeed! Super way to maintain peace.
April 13, 2014 7:03 pm|
You think so too, Tulika! Great!! π
April 12, 2014 8:39 am|
LOL, I wish kissing would solve all problems. Since my husband and I spend so much time apart…long distance fights could really use a kiss to make up properly. Unfortunately, you generally don’t get that until weeks afterward when he finally comes home. Sometimes it is odd, almost like we have to get use to each other again. He is famous for saying “Are you going to kiss me or not?”
April 13, 2014 7:07 pm|
I know what you mean, Kathy!! But am sure, it must be like re-discovering love all over again! β₯
April 12, 2014 10:12 am|
Oh yes! I agree fully. But then kissing for no particular reason is also a great idea, even greater than great idea…;)
April 13, 2014 7:06 pm|
Agree with that π
April 12, 2014 11:18 am|
Hi Shilpa, I am enjoying your theme a lot. Using a kiss to describe give and take is very articulate π Reflex Reactions
April 13, 2014 7:07 pm|
Thanks Ida! Glad you are liking this series. Your theme is awesome too! π
April 12, 2014 11:41 am|

April 13, 2014 7:08 pm|
Thanks a lot, Asha for your all your support and encouragement π
April 12, 2014 12:00 pm|
Yeees! sweet post today, Shilpa:-) All for kissing π π
April 13, 2014 7:09 pm|
Thanks Eli and yes, let there be more kisses around π
April 12, 2014 12:25 pm|
the kiss that solves all the problems π
April 13, 2014 7:09 pm|
Hmmm…. π
April 12, 2014 1:03 pm|
I agree kiss is a sure fire way to stop an argument in making π That’s why I like arguing, errr, only with my husband π
April 13, 2014 7:10 pm|
Wow, how smart, Prasanna π
April 12, 2014 1:09 pm|
Your post made me think about someone and a movie related to him.
There is this one scene that you should watch!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DiexuOnbZZU
Watch it from 6min:02sec – Sorry I didn’t get the subtitle but here is the translation!
Nithya: It is my mistake, all my mistake. I should have done one thing when we fought, when we broke up, when we were separated in school, in college, now. I should have done that, because that’s how we spoke all the important things – without a word, we speak
*kisses him*
Nithya: Don’t have anything to say?
Varun: I have lots!
Nithya: Tell.
Varun: I will tell
Nithya: How?
Varun: This way
*kisses her back*
Sorry for the lengthy comment. The BGM is so wow!!! π π
April 13, 2014 7:18 pm|
Aww!! That was such a sweet clip, Sri!! Loved it and thanks for sharing the translation of it too! π β₯
April 12, 2014 1:50 pm|

physical touch is so important to keep that magic alive in a married life…..so many relationships fall apart, because it misses this crucial aspect….
April 13, 2014 7:21 pm|
Well said, S π
April 12, 2014 8:07 pm|
Beautiful. A kiss can solve so much!
April 13, 2014 7:21 pm|
Hmmm… quite a lot π
April 12, 2014 8:23 pm|
There’s nothing that helps a couple communicate better!
April 13, 2014 7:22 pm|
Agree with you, Michelle π
April 12, 2014 8:30 pm|
Kisses get us all through the day! I especially love it when my husband throws me a kiss from a distance and everyone else blows the kiss right back – hahahaha!
Love your post – thank you!

Shilpa,
Could not visit for a few day. Caught up with all pending ones. One must Give space and never misuse such given space. Holding hands has own charm of showing care and love. One should never do what one does not want to be found out. Jest is fine if both partners try to end any argument with love. Right your are – Kiss is not to shut up partner but show love.
Take care
April 12, 2014 9:15 pm|
So true. Kissing is the best idea in a marriage… it keeps the love going!
April 13, 2014 1:38 am|
Well.. it indeed was a great idea π
April 13, 2014 5:13 am|
Too funny — loved it

I am blog-hopping for the A To Z Blogging Challenge thing… and I’m glad I stopped by here! What a good premise for an A To Z, and kissing is indeed a good way to use a mouth. Thanks!
April 13, 2014 10:53 am|
aaha π A spicy side of marriage….yes, the physical touch always helps in diluting a fight !!
